LASALLE UPDATE (OMG!!!!)

The manuscript of Emerson LaSalle's final novel DID NOT ARRIVE by FedEx as expected. I am in a sweaty panic. The books was typed on an old Smith Corona and there is NO COPY!!! We've tracked the package as far as New Orleans. I'm thinking of driving down there with a revolver and making it clear that I fully intend to have that manuscript.

I still can't believe you ripped off the title of LaSalle's Go Go Girls From Planet Damnation.

LaSalle wrote the Gold Medal classic BLACK WINGS HAS MY ANGEL under the pseudonym Elliot Chaze.

Graham,

Great writers steal. Everyone knows that.

Joe,

Mr. LaSalle actually told me that he wrote nearly a hundred of his novels under other names ... one of the reasons his books are so hard to track down. To make matters even more complicated he never used the same pen name twice.

About that delayed (or lost) package: I blame the Bush administration.
